"What people don't understand is that we filmed [Mr & Mrs Smith] for a year," he says. "We were still filming after Jen and I split up. Even then it doesn't mean that there was some kind of dastardly affair. There wasn't. I'm very proud of the way that it was handled. It was respectful."
Jennifer might disagree. The 39-year-old star of Friends called Angelina's earlier comment that the couple had fallen in love on set "uncool", but Pitt, 45, downplays any animosity. "Listen, man, Jen is a sweetheart," he says. "I think she got dragged into that one and then there's a second round to all that Angie versus Jen. It's so created. We still check in with each other. She was a big part of my life, and me hers. I don't see how there cannot be [that]. That's life, man. That's life."
